No news yet. Yes, the date is about two weeks off. 
I know that it's not a "milestone" in that it's not a game anniversary--but 75 months sounds pretty impressive. Of course, I'd much rather they add a "100th Anniversary Badge" rather than the inevitable letdowns of 99 and 102 months.

I agree with this. I don't like the idea of a new badge every 3 months anyway. It gets old real fast. I think the higher it goes, the less there should be.|

For example:
3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120 (10 years).
It doesn't really give you a number 100, but it expands the range so that we don't have to have pointless minor things every 3 months. Instead, we can stay a little it longer and get something better each time. That's even less vet badges than we already have now, so it would have reduced the need for Devs to spend time coming up with something that people end up disappointed with.
The artwork for 3-99 months already exists. I wouldn't expect them to change it, but you never know. We never expected a market merger either, so it could happen...

True. There was a bunch of artwork for almost 100 AE badges too, but we all know what happened to those. It's not like the Vet badges took long to create anyway. They are all the same with a different number placed on top of it. haha|

Anyway, I do agree they wouldn't change it. At most, they'd simply cut back future rewards, not change the way the existing ones work.. and I don't expect them to either. I was just thinking of how it would have worked better on launch.

I still don't understand why some people don't like that though... Everyone get a new Vet badge every 3 months, everyone. I think people get fixated on new Vet badges when they are announced because it's "new". I don't see either why the players who have been here the longer should stop getting Vet badges. Like I said, everyone get a new badges every 3 months.

Well it's not just about a new badge every 3 months.. it's about the reward that comes with each one as well. The longer we are here, the better reward we should get, and the longer we wait for such an award. The current system stinks because it creates threads like yours with all kinds of mystery surrounding the reward and then when it's finally released, everybody is disappointed with a costume piece they don't want or something, even though their last reward was an amazing power of some kind. It's just not very balanced, and it makes the Devs throw in all these nonsense filler rewards like simple merits when their time could better be spent on game actual content, or working on an even better reward months down the line (hence the longer wait as well). I guess nothing is wrong with that, but some people expect more.|

(I actually couldn't care less how they do it one way or another, I'm just explaining the viewpoint. I'm happy enough with just the badge, but on the other hand it seems silly. Three months goes by like nothing.)
For me, it's because I'd rather have a spiffy badge that said "100!!!" instead of "102."

72, 84, 100, 120
haha.
Yeah, I'd happily give up getting a 99 month badge in exchange for a 100 month badge. After 96, wait 4 months for 100, then wait 5 months for 105.
Actually, thinking about it...
They should go every 3 months up to 96. Then, at 96, make it 4 months, so that it's 100, and then go every 6 months.
My main account is coming up on 60 months in August, and my second account is coming up on 36 months in August. At this point, I don't even pay any attention to how much time has passed between Vet Rewards. I doubt that jump to one per 6 months would make a difference. And, with a 6 month spacer instead of 3, maybe we'd get some cooler rewards...

Doubtful on getting better rewards, but I wouldn't mind the intervals getting longer. I mean, I'm coming up on 75. It's like a marriage--in the beginning, you celebrate every year. After a while, you celebrate the small milestones. Later, you celebrate the BIG milestones. So yeah, hooray for my imminent Dodranscentennial (75) Anniversary. Wake me up for the Centennial.

My prediction is that 75 month vet reward will be "nipples".

At this point they come frequently enough to remind people to keep subscribing while not frequently enough to make people get too many. In other words, unlike all the other rewards in this game, this one is pretty balanced.

Yay, awesome, got Resolute tonight.
Weird thing is, it doesn't show up in Vet. badges--only Recent badges. Anyone else having issues?

Its in your vet badges... just not at the bottom of the list where it should be. I think mine showed up somewhere around a 50-some month badge? So scan up, you should see it. Appears off in the character info badge list too.

I got this badge last night. I noticed that I'm getting the normal level of prestige, i.e. 344 prestige for mission complete. Anyone else have this issue? It seems I'm not getting the 10% bonus.

That being the case, Mission and Arc Completion bonuses would remain the same as it always has been.
Has there been any announcements made so far for the 75 months veteran badge? It's like 2 weeks away or so.
